The consob houses the factorydnstaHed accumulator timer with

actuating arm and button.

The factory-installed timer is set to provide 45 minutes (4 pins) of

drying time when activated by the coin slide. Timer cams for
30-minute (6 pins) and 60-minute (3 pins) drying times are

included in the parts bag.

NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving to
avoid damaging floor covering.

1, Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation

location.

2, Take tape off front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove

the literature and parts packages. Wipe the interior of the
drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

3, Take two of the cardboard corners from the carton and place

them on the floor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp the body
of the dryer and gently Iay it on its back on the cardboard
corners.

4, With one of the legs in hand, check the ridges for a diamond

marking. That's how far the leg is supposed to go into the
hole.

5, Start to screw the leveling legs into the holes by hand. (Use a

small amount of liquid detergent to lubricate the screw
threads so it is easier to turn the legs.) Use a 1-inch wrench or

socket wrench to finish turning the legs until you reach the
diamond mark.

6, Remove cardboard or hardboard from under dryer.

Now stand the dryer up.

NOTE: if the coin slide and coin box mechanism is installed, go
to "Adjusting Coin Box" section.

1, Remove the service door of the meter case by lifting it up at

the back. Install money-accepting device. (Refer to
manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.)

For dryers using coin sJides, use the adapter kit supplied with

the dryer.

Replace the meter case service door. Make sure the lock is

located toward the rear of the case.
